Full Description
Runs from NG 8468 3671 to NG 8473 3860
Originally carefully contstructed with culverts this path connects Reraig with Achintraid. It has the appearance of a stalkers path of the last century. In places in the forestry where the natural drainage has been affected by planting, any trace of the constructed path has disappeared, but on the high ground it is well preserved and marked by cairns. Some of these cairns may have been resting places for coffins being taken for burial (Kishorn would have been the nearest burial ground)
